As we speak, we are witnessing Harper ”changing the channel”, from the Politics channel to the Business channel. Leaving the Liberals behind to wallow in the dust.

The coy Stephen Harper will be on BNN’s Squeeze Play today at 5 pm.. When has that ever happened in the past? Never.

This is why Harper prorogued Parliament, in order to “change the channel”.. How good of BNN to oblige. Any chance that BNN will ask him about his TAX LEAKAGE LIE which caused Canadians to lose $35 billion of their life savings. Maybe Harper will have some more stock picks to share with Canadians like “A Conservative Government will never raid seniors’ nest eggs by taxing income trusts”. What a CON job that was! Where is the representation in Ottawa for these people and that massive scam? Does that channel even exist? The Accountability Channel? I guess not.

Speaking of Survivor , maybe we should ask Mark Burnett if he could use one slightly used PM on his show.

I will gladly pay the plane fare.

PSSST , Liberals , it is all about the economy & allowing Canadians to Survive day to day expenses----income trusts were the answer to supplementing income streams & they were the answer to enhanced gov`t revenues.

Income Trust Halloween VigilThanks to all who participated in both the Ottawa and Calgary vigils to mark the anniversary of the announcement.

WE"D LIKE SOME ANSWERS

As you well know, the ‘income trust thing’ has grown beyond the
question of whether fair taxes are paid on income from trusts. It’s
become a giant dirty snowball, and as it rolls forward it accumulates
more and more bulk. There are so many unanswered questions. Let's list a few and invite our "Accountable" government and our free press to provide some much-needed answers.

It is said “Trusts are inefficient use of capital. Why?” Two
related questions are ‘Whose money is it, anyway?’, and ‘Do Canadian
investors have a free and efficient market?’

How can information that is already in the public domain at SEDAR
make for a state secret? How could such information be used to harm
the Canadian national interest? And who would cause the harm?

Why won’t the Canadian media investigate the falsehoods and
misrepresentations told by the Minister of Finance to a committee of
Parliament? Was the Minister in contempt of Parliament?

Why won’t the Canadian media report (a) government tax revenues
gained from BCE in 2006 when BCE was a corporation to (b) government
tax revenues that would be gained in 2007 from BCE, if BCE had been
allowed to proceed to a trust, and (c) government tax revenues that
will be gained in 2007 from BCE, when BCE ownership has been carved
up as 45% foreign ownership and 55% large Canadian pension fund
ownership?
